Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })A 1975 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Action-Adventure film directed by John Milius, The Wind and the Lion tells a fictionalized version of the 1904 "Pedicaris incident."When an American woman, Eden Pedicaris (Candice Bergen), and her two children are kidnapped in Morocco by a Berber chieftain, Mulai Ahmed el Raisuli (Sean Connery), President Theodore Roosevelt (Brian Keith) sends warships and Marines, leading to an international confrontation. The film focuses on the personal conflict between Roosevelt and Raisuli, and on the romance between Raisuli and Mrs. Pedicaris.The Wind and the Lion is a good old-fashioned high adventure. While it does not allow the beauty of the thing to be spoiled with obsessive accuracy, it features loving attention to period details, impressive set-piece action sequences, memorable acting and dialogue, and a sweeping musical score by Jerry Goldsmith.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })John Milius later also directed and wrote The Rough Riders, a spiritual prequel. | |

Aristocrats Are Evil: The Bashaw is this to a T. The Sultan, despite being a spoiled Royal Brat, borders on being an Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain, since he's shown to be completely in over his head and unaware of how to handle a complex diplomatic situation. | |

Action Film, Quiet Drama Scene: Many. "I am bluffing too." Mrs. Pedicaris playing chess with Raisuli. Most of Roosevelt's scenes, though because he is TR they often take place while he's engaging in activities like hunting, boxing or target shooting. | |

Action Mom: Mrs. Pedicaris is always one, although she doesn't actively wield a weapon until half-way through the movie. | |

Asian Speekee Engrish: Amusingly and pointedly averted with the Japanese ambassador during Roosevelt's birthday dinner. The Secretary of State had been condescending to the ambassador since the dinner began (asking such insipid questions as "Likee forkee", in regard to the silverware they were using). And then the ambassador stands to give Roosevely a rather eloquent congratulatory speech in perfect, unaccented English, after which he sits down, smiles at the Secretary of State, and asks the man, "You likee speechee?" | |
